We went to the Polynesian Cultural Center for the Alii Luau and had a great time at some of the island stations.
Do note that if you book a luau at the Polynesian Cultural Center and plan to go the islands before the luau that you need to arrive at noon if you intend to visit every island and see each island show. Samoa and Tonga are great, but take nearly an hour each if you want to see all of the fun shows at each island.
The first island we visited was Samoa. We got to attempt to make fire with two sticks and watch a show where they made all sorts of stuff with coconuts, climbed a palm tree, and twirled a fire staff. Samoa was super fun and the best island in our opinion. The Samoan dudes were great and very entertaining.
The other station that we went to was Tonga where my dad entertained everyone by wearing a grass skirt while dancing and playing the drums.
After the shows we went to the luau and saw another fire twirler. We also had a feast of pig, steak, chicken, fish, sweet potatoes, and purple poi bread. The buffet was well worth the money. The Kalua pig was the best we tasted at any time while on the island.
Lastly, we saw the Hau – Breath of Life. It was incredible! For sure, you have to see it if you are at the Polynesian Cultural Center for a luau.
